The New Police.

The Cabinet have consented to the
Attorney Generals plan for recognizing
the police force of Honolulu, as fol-
lows:
There will be three divisions of the
force under one captain, each consisting
of one sergeant, two corporals and four
teen men. These men will be consid-
cred as of three grades with wages at
$50, $40 and $50 per month, respectively.
There will be number of other special
officers, such as one for sessions of SUI
preme and Circuit Courts, Hack Officer,
Police Clerk, two turkeys, two Capitol
Police and others. The new force will
commence duty on Saturday, October
9Th, in three four-hour shifts and two six
hour shifts-in all five shifts per day,
thus bringing each section of the men
on duty at different hours each day.
The change will bring more foreigners
on the force if the rate OF wages will at
ract them. The captain, one of the
sergeants and four of the corporals will
be foreigners, and as many of the men
as can be obtained. These changes will
involve the dismissal OF a good many
men, but no changes viii be made
simply for the sake of making billets for
office-seekers, but in Diminishing the
more recently appointed of the en-
ployees, and the least efficient of the
older ones will be removed to make
room for men of experience elsewhere in
similar establishments.
There will be change in the uniform,
but this does not involve any charge on
the Department, as the men pay for
their own clothing, but the Attorney
General thinks their will be d saving and
not extra expense in the change.
The object of thus reorganizing the
police force is to concentrate the respon-
sibility, and increase the effectiveness
and vigilance of the police of Honolulu
as body, but no thoroughness in this
line need be expected for sometime until
the effect of the changes is SEEM Bull
letin.

a Chapter on NHacauIey.

In Tuesday mornings issue of the AD-
vEsTIsER we stated that the pianoforte
used at the Joran concert was badly out
of tune and reflected no credit upon the
one who tuned it. Every word we wrote
was the truth; the instrument was badly
out of tune. At that time we were not
aware who had tuned out; nor did we
care. We felt very sorry TO think that
such talented artists as the Misses Jorans
should be obliged to pay on an instrument
in such a condition, and expressed our
opinion. The majority of the audience
evidently agreed with Us.
In Wednesday afternoons Bulletin"
appeared an explanation from s. Macaulev,
and in Thursday mornings Gazette"
letter written by the same individual. He
has evidently tried the cap on and it fits to
ct" We regret to have to contradict
some of his statements, they being very
untruthful.
In the first place, he says he is the only
person in the city who follows the profess
sion of tuning and repairing pianos. That
is direct lie. Mr.. J. w. YarndIev is a
tuner and repairer-the best in the city
but owing to his teaching engagements he
is only able to attend to orders once in a
while. Were he to give teaching up he
would have all the tuning he wished for
Most of the pipe organs in this city are
in bad condition. Macauley knows very
well that he has no pipe-organ tuning in
struments, aad in past years he used his
fingers to nip the tops of the pipes, and
the consequence is they do not speak their
proper tone. The organ in St. Andrew Ca
thedral was put up five years ago by the
organist, and every pipe is as round at the
top to-day as on the day they were made.
Why is this? Because tuning cones are
used, and not fingers.
S. Macauley is untruthful again when he
says that the expert tuner expected to-day
was written for to mend a hole in the
Anglican Church organ bellows, but in
reality to put up the organ of the Kauma-

THE HILO RAILROAD.

The Hilo people do not seem to have
lost hope in their railroad scheme, and
we hope the public generally have not.
Railroads, like steamships, good roads,
harbors and good wharves, all tend to
increase public and private improve
ments, and the country at large is benz
flied thereby There is no section of
the country better adapted for railroad
purposes than the one proposed the soil
is equal to any, if not superior; the ex-
tent is greater that would be available
for farms and plantations, and only
railroad required to make it one of the
most populous districts as we'll as the
most prosperous. A large tract of coun-
try at the present time all but valueless
could be made one of the greatest value
to the people and country.
The thousands of small farms that
would grow up by the settlement of
great prosperity of all countries are at
tributed to this class of settlements. If
any one will take the trouble to examine
into our imports, they will be surprised
to note the annual outlay for hay, grain,
potatoes, butter, cheese and many other
articles, all of which might and could be
raised at home, rearing up population
valuable to the nation as well as in
creasing the value of property, of which
the country in general shows.
That the project would be a success
there is no question, when the extent of
country, soil and climate are taken into
consideration in fact, reference to all
countries prove this fact. But all enter
prises of this character require some
backing. Men are not to be found gen.
orally that are able and willing to as
sumo responsibilities so large, at least
We know none that are able, if willing.
Our Government at present are not in
position TO help. however much they
may approve of Or see the need of if.
But there is no doubt the day is not far
distant when the Government will have

either larger subsidy or a guarantee of
interest on say thirty years bonds.
Many may say this would be another
mortgage on the country, or, in other
words, new Indebtedness. Itmight be
the latter, but financial men would not
consider it in the light of the former.
The increased taxation in the district
alone would in five years overpay the

Equitable Life Assurance society.

There is no insurance company which
pays up its death claims so promptly as
the Equitable Life Assurance Society,
of which Mr.. Alex. J. Cartwright is
: agent. In the Equitable record for Sep
TENDER we notice that General James
NJ. Comfy, formerly o. S. Minister Resi-
dent at Honolulu, lately deceased, had
his life insured for So 900 in the Equit-
able Society. The proofs were received
August 18th, and the claim was paid the
same day.
The books of the Equitable Society
are closed once a year, but soundings
are taken from time to time during the
year, and it is interesting to note the
progress at the end of the first six
months of 1887. A comparison OF the
condition of the Society on the first OF
July, with its condition on the same date
in the preceding year, shows a magnifi-
cent increase in every important par
ticular.
The percentage of increase in income
isvery large, while there is a decrease in
the death claims reported. a large gain
in assets is shown, and there is an i'm
provement in the rate of interest realized
on assets. There is a heavy gain in
new business and in outstanding assur-
ance. In the last particular the Society's
position is especially gratifying; for the
increase in outstanding assurance is
more than three-fourths of the increase
for the whole OF the preceding year. The
percentage of expense of management to
new business shows a decrease, as does
the death rate

kapiH Church" The expert tuner, MI.
CaswelI. was written TO about eight
months ago to come here, but pressing en-
gagements prevented him. He comes now
entirely on his own responsibility. With
regard to the new Kaumakapih Church
organ, when it arrives, probably the end
of December, it will be set up in position
by the future organist of the church,
an arrangement which is most distinctly
understood by the trustees OF the church
Macauley will not be allowed to touch
even the packing cases it comes in,
much less the instrument. We need not
give the reasons.
The whole trouble of Macauley's spite
full letter lies in a nutshell He is terribly
Jealous over the coming of this expert
tuner, and finding no other way to vent
his feelings, fires into the ADVERTISER and
attacks its critic personally. When he
SAYS that critique was written expressly
with a malicious design against HIM, he
again lies. His name was not mentioned,
or even thought of. 1t was written more
for the sake of the artists who had to play
on the instrument. He thinks it rather
hard to be 'spat upon by any boy" but
boys will be boys.
This expert tuner viii have an abund-
ance of work to do when he arrives, as
many orders are awaiting him. He is
thorough workman, and above all a sober
one. The latter quality is very essential
one in a piano tuner.
About year ago the writer employed
Macauley to tune his piano, but after
going through it twice, it was very little
better than before he began. The S. paid
him might as well have been thrown to the
dogs His spiteful attack is very poor
acknowledgement to one who has actually
thrown work in his way, as many people
can testify to.

PEARL RIVER.
nlents.

The cession of Pearl River, matter
that agitated the minds of the people of
this community in 1873, seems to be
coming to the front again, and doubt
less will become q very strong factor in
the politics of this country in the COM
ing session of the Legislature, to meet
IN May next. At the present time we
shall have little to say on the subject.
Setting the political side OF the question
to one side many will look with favor on
measure that would be likely to serve
the interests Of either party or persons
for the time being, leaving the future to
care for itself.
